Chapter 516: Chapter 244: New Intel: The Special Claypot, Dropped Chandelier, and the Ex-Husband Who Hid Assets!

During the meal.

Bai Yulan learned that Jiang Tao was dining with someone at her hotel and sent a case of Maotai to the private room he was in.

From Bai Yulan sending Jiang Tao this case of Maotai.

Zhu Haibin and the others had more speculations about the relationship between Jiang Tao and Bai Yulan.

The relationship between President Jiang and President Bai is definitely not ordinary!

Jinwei Welding Materials is somewhat known and a solid company in Ping County.

Zhu Haibin, the general manager, is also considered a notable figure in Ping County.

But every time he comes to Baiyulan Hotel, he is very proper, keeps a low profile, and doesn’t dare to act up here.

Anyone with any status in Ping County knows that Bai Yulan has strong backing!

It’s no exaggeration to say that there’s no one in the entire Ping County worth Bai Yulan’s favor.

Instead, it’s those big leaders who go to great lengths to curry favor with her.

Now, Bai Yulan actually took the initiative to send Jiang Tao wine, and a whole case at that!

If this were to get out, no one would probably believe it!

But it happened right before their eyes, and Zhu Haibin and the others couldn’t help but believe it.

This move also made Zhu Haibin and the others take this cooperation with Jiang Tao more seriously.

The meal started from a little past 6 PM and continued until after 9 PM.

After leaving, everyone took their own cars home.

When Jiang Tao and his father-in-law were driven to the West City Hua Fu District apartment, Xu Li and Xu Sha were already waiting there.

Seeing the two men drunk, Xu Li, although a bit complaining, had a look full of concern in her eyes.

Back home, they chatted a bit more, and after everyone took turns washing up, they each went back to their rooms to sleep.

Xu Li had been out all day and was a bit tired.

Plus, Jiang Tao drank today and was drunk, so it wasn’t suitable to try for a second child.

So, the couple didn’t "cook" tonight.

Jiang Tao activated the [Deep Sleep Mode] for Xu Li, and within five minutes, she was sound asleep.

After he showered, the alcohol in his system had mostly dissipated, and his mind was clear.

Lately, perhaps due to drinking more often, Jiang Tao felt his alcohol tolerance had increased significantly.

Of course, it might also be because he’s now drinking better quality liquor than before.

Whether by himself or with friends, it used to be cheap liquor costing a dozen or so bucks.

Times have changed; now, whenever Jiang Tao drinks with others, it’s Maotai that costs thousands to start with.

Even though both are alcohol, drinking cheap liquor versus expensive Maotai affects the body differently!

Nonetheless, Jiang Tao felt that good liquor wasn’t the main reason for his increased tolerance.

The key reason for his greatly enhanced tolerance should be his improved constitution.

His constitution went from over 30 points initially to over 100 now, multiplying several-fold in strength!

At the unseen micro level, his body’s metabolic rate, blood oxygen capacity, and cardiopulmonary function have all improved significantly.

With a healthy body and fast metabolism, sobering up naturally happens quicker, which in turn improves alcohol tolerance significantly!

Tonight, Jiang Tao drank three cases of Maotai with Zhu Haibin and the others, roughly 18 bottles!

Excluding Wen Ling, who only drank juice, there were seven main drinkers, averaging two and a half bottles each.

His father-in-law, Xu Wencheng, was put to bed without even bathing upon returning home.

Zhu Haibin and the others were already swaying as they left, likely asleep by now.

Only Jiang Tao, having drunk almost three bottles of white liquor, seemed unbothered and was browsing his phone.

After browsing through his social circle, checking small websites, and then quick videos, he waited until midnight for the intelligence system page to refresh.

[Today’s Intelligence 01]:

You dined at Qiao Claypot with an old classmate, Yuan Mengqi, yesterday, and acquired related intelligence—

Within Qiao Claypot, there is a claypot that is a special item.

Upon acquiring ownership, special attributes can be activated.

...

"The special claypot at Qiao Claypot?"

Seeing today’s first refreshed intelligence, Jiang Tao’s eyes lit up.

Another special item!

Based on experiences from previously acquired special items.

Special items acknowledged by Brother Tongzi have never been bad!

River Stone, Salary Card, Wealth-Attracting Golden Toad, Money Breeds Money, Beiqi EU5, Delicious Pickle Jar;

Jade Dew Bottle, Monopoly Dice, Body Building Treadmill, Immortal Holly, and so on, and so on...

Any normal person acquiring just one of these could have a life-transforming change. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Yet, in just a few months, Jiang Tao had acquired over a dozen of them.

Truly favored by the heavens.

Initially, when acquiring these items, Jiang Tao thought about how to quickly monetize them.

But with more items in hand, he became less urgent about it.

The road must be walked gradually, and the days ahead are long; there’s no rush to compete for time.

Besides, he now has a house, a car, and over ten million in savings.

Earning money now stimulates him very little psychologically.

Even earning over a million a day isn’t as exhilarating as when he used to make a few thousand.

For him, earning money has become a game of numbers.

A game of watching the numbers change in his bank account.

But really, who would mind having more money?

He must get his hands on that special claypot from Qiao Claypot tomorrow!

After reading the first intelligence, Jiang Tao’s thoughts shifted as he continued to the second item.
